Genesis 3

A serpent tricks the woman into eating the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden. She brings the fruit to Adam, they realize good from evil. God punishes humans by cursing the soil and painful child birth. Then God expels them from the garden because Adam and the Eve could eat from the Tree of Life and live forever. God then places mighty angles with flaming swords to guard the entrance to the garden.

Notes of interest:

Adam gives the woman the name (Eve).

Angles are not humans. Angles could be what God refers to when he talks in the “we” and “us” format. This probably answers the question under Genesis 1, however it isn’t concrete enough for me to officially call it.

There exists a Tree of Life, guarded by angles, somewhere in Eden.
